Abstract

A fixed electrode layer 12 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 11. A vibrating film is formed on the fixed electrode layer through a spacer 14. Since the vibrating film is a light-permeable film, in order to prevent the malfunction of an electronic circuit formed in the semiconductor substrate by incident light, the region where the electronic circuit is to be formed is covered with a shield metal 33.
